“Nothing has changed,’’ agent Mark Bartelstein said of the non-existent negotiations with the Titans. “He will definitely hit the market, but (we’ll) continue to talk to the Titans.’’

Bartelstein said last week he didn’t expect the Titans to try to re-sign the veteran center after they inked guard Eugene Amano to a five-year, $25.7 million deal. He expects the Titans will give rising fourth-year lineman Leroy Harris a chance to play, and said Mawae — who recently played in his eighth Pro Bowl – isn’t interested in returning as a back-up.

Looking ahead, there’s a chance the Titans could move Amano to center and give Harris an opportunity to play guard.

But it sounds like there’s no shot Mawae will be back with the Titans, unless other teams are unwilling to pay him and he agrees to return for backup-level money.
